A Simple Knowledge AutoCAD Standard

You can create a standards file to define common properties in order to maintain consistency throughout your drawing files. Standards define a set of common properties for named objects such as layers and text styles. You or your CAD manager can create, apply, and audit standards in AutoCAD® drawings to enforce consistency. Because standards make it easier for others to interpret drawings, standards are particularly useful in collaborative environments, where many individuals contribute to the creation of a drawing.
Named Objects for Standards-Checking
You can create standards for the following named objects:
• Layers
• Text styles
• Linetypes
• Dimension styles
